C++ priority_queue does not offer a .begin() pointer (like vector would do) that you can use to iterate over it. If you want to iterate over the priority queue to search for whether it contains a value then maybe create a wrapper priority queue and use a hash set to keep track of what you have in the queue.
May 17, 2010 · Here's a clean and simple method to clear any priority_queue (and queue, and most other containers as well): template <class Q>. void clearQueue(Q & q) {. q = Q(); } Since it's a template, you don't have to remember all the template parameters. Example: std::priority_queue<MyType> simpleQueue;
Oct 19, 2013 · A neat little trick to handle deletes for a priority_queue STL - use another priority_queue, say, del_pq. Keep inserting all the delete values to this. When you are popping values from the original priority queue, check with top of del_pq and see if we wanted to delete it. If it matches, delete the value from the original priority_queue.
Oct 23, 2013 · Since a queue follows a priority discipline, the strings are printed from highest to lowest priority. Sometimes one needs to create a priority queue to contain user defined objects. In this case, the priority queue needs to know the comparison criterion used to determine which objects have the highest priority.
Feb 2, 2015 · However, the syntax to do so is much simpler than shown there: class Node; bool Compare(Node a, Node b); std::priority_queue<Node, std::vector<Node>, decltype(&Compare)> openSet(Compare); That is, there is no need to explicitly encode the function's type, you can let the compiler do that for you using decltype.
2. C++ STL priority_queue underlying data structure is Heap data structure (Heap is a non linear ADT which based on complete binary tree and complete binary tree is implemented through vector (or Array) container. ex Input data : 5 9 3 10 12 4. Heap (Considering Min heap) would be : [3]
Mar 24, 2013 · Let us take a structure car which has model and price both integers and build priority queue based on highest price at the top. int m; int p; void set(int a,int b){. m =a,p = b; For Method 1 we need to do this: return c1.p < c2.p; For Method 2 we need to pass this structure: bool operator()(const Car& c1,const Car& c2){.
Jun 20, 2017 · This corresponds to the std::priority_queue constructors that accept a container parameter. If you have an empty priority queue to which you want to add n items, one at a time, then the complexity is O (n * log (n)). So if you have all of the items that will go into your queue before you build it, then the first method will be more efficient.
Jul 21, 2012 · 1. One idea is to create a min priority queue and use the size () method to only fill the priority queue to the required level. Something like this: #include <iostream>. #include <vector>. #include <queue>. using namespace std; struct Compare {. // priority queue is max heap by default, use compare.
Mar 13, 2010 · @DhruvMullick It's a little confusing but think of the compare function to return true when you want to put the element at the bottom of the priority queue, and false to put the element at the top of the priority queue. Since default implementation is std::less, that will put the smallest element at the bottom of the priority queue and therefore the largest element is at the top (max heap).
